Chapter 460: Someone Died Just After Opening
Lin Panpan smiled and handed over a stack of test reports:
"The patient with a weak pulse whom I saw last month had early arrhythmia detected using this device.
Machines can provide us with an additional basis for judgment when our fingertips can’t feel it.”
She pointed to the operational flowchart hanging on the wall and said, "All departments are currently undergoing rotation training, and it will be officially put into use next month."
At first, the old men and women thought that those examination instruments were nothing special.
Lin Panpan didn't explain much and directly found 20 patients and asked the old Chinese doctors to diagnose them by taking their pulses first and then use instruments to test them.
The results were surprising. Not only was the instrument able to diagnose quickly, but some of the results were even more accurate than manual pulse diagnosis.
Old Master Gu couldn't stop smiling and kept praising: "Look, my granddaughter-in-law is amazing!"
Others also exclaimed: "I didn't expect this, it's amazing! Aren't these machines all imported?"
Lin Panpan smiled and waved her hand: "These are all developed by us, and some are rare on the market."
After saying that, she led everyone into the hospital, introducing other equipment as they walked.
When everyone had finished looking, Lin Panpan took them to the medicine display area, picked up a few boxes of medicine and said:
"These are the main drugs promoted by our hospital, all of which are developed and produced by us.
In the future, we will also build a pharmaceutical factory to produce more high-quality medicines, making it more convenient for everyone to see a doctor and take medicine."
Some people asked in confusion: "These medicines look similar to Western medicines, why do we need to make this?"
Lin Panpan picked up the medicine box and said with a smile:
"You can tell by the smell that these are authentic, pure Chinese medicines. They are much cheaper than Western medicines and have milder effects.
From now on, our hospital will rely on these medicines to treat everyone. They are both effective and affordable."
Everyone came closer to smell it and found it was indeed the familiar herbal scent. They all nodded in agreement.
The next day, Mr. Gu brought a dozen well-known experts with him, followed by hundreds of apprentices.
These experts are well-known in the circle, and many people have heard of their abilities a long time ago.
Now the hospital became bustling with people lining up at the door and people coming to see the doctor from morning to night.
Li Si stood by the office window with a gloomy face, staring at the hospital across the street.
The registration area was packed, the corridors were filled with people holding their medical records and waiting for their appointments, and even the steps at the hospital entrance were filled with patients waiting to get their medicine.
He gritted his teeth and muttered, "We've only been open for one day, how come there are so many patients suddenly?"
Guo Deguang came running over panting, his face full of resentment:
"It's all that Lin Panpan's fault! I don't know where she learned these shady tricks, but she's treating opening a hospital like a sales promotion.
There are free medical consultations, free eggs, and even weekly consultations by senior experts.
Those old men and women just fell for it, calling their friends and running over there!"
He grew angrier and angrier as he spoke, slamming the table. "A good hospital is being run like a market. How shameful!"
Li Si frowned, staring at the huge crowd at the hospital entrance, and couldn't help but say, "This is troublesome. All the old men and women around here are running over there."
Guo Deguang curled his lips and shook his head with disdain:
“How much money can those old men and women have?
If you look closely, you'll see many of them are from the countryside, just here to get free eggs and free health checkups at the hospital's grand opening."
He craned his neck and pointed at the crowd: "Look at those people, their shoes are almost falling off but they're still trying to squeeze in. They're really just trying to join in the fun."
After hearing what he said, Li Si's expression softened a little, and he nodded and said:
"Yes, how can the hospital be any better if it relies on these old people who love to take advantage of others?
I guess it will disappear after a couple of days when the novelty wears off.
Forget it, let's focus on our own hospital and serve real patients, and ignore these fancy things."
After saying that, he turned around and sat back in his chair, grabbing the documents on the table, but his eyes kept drifting out the window.
Guo Deguang suddenly slapped his thigh, a cunning light flashing in his eyes:
"This is easy! Let's find a few good talkers and start some trouble over there!
As long as you can stir up chaos, are you afraid that no one will believe you? "
He rubbed his hands together, a sinister smile curling up at the corner of his mouth: "I will make sure their hospital can't continue to operate!"
Li Si raised an eyebrow and looked at him suspiciously, "That's easy to say, but what's the point?"
"Don't worry!" Guo Deguang leaned forward, lowered his voice, and said a few words mysteriously. Finally, he patted his chest and promised: "It will work this afternoon, and that Lin guy will be in big trouble!"
That afternoon, there was a sudden uproar in front of Lin Panpan Hospital.
A group of people swarmed in, holding white banners. A middle-aged woman at the front, her hair disheveled, collapsed to the ground, wailing and digging her nails into the tiles. "Help! My son was only in his twenties, and he died here today while receiving treatment!"
Her shrill cries pierced the crowd, and several of her accomplices followed suit, shouting in protest: "Black-hearted hospital! Give me back my life!"
Someone held up a sign that read "Quack doctors are deadly" and shook it vigorously, which instantly attracted passers-by to stop and surround the doctor in three layers.
Hospital security tried to maintain order, but was pushed back repeatedly by the rioters.
From time to time, voices such as "It's too immoral" and "An explanation must be given" could be heard from the crowd.
Several reporters, microphones raised, were almost in front of Lin Panpan's face. "Director Lin, someone died just after the hospital opened today. Was this a medical accident?"
The crowd's whispers instantly quieted down, and everyone's eyes fell on Lin Panpan.
She looked calm as she turned to look at the woman slumped on the ground: "I want to confirm, have you registered with our hospital today?"
The woman's wailing stopped abruptly. She stood there with her mouth open, tears still streaming from the corners of her eyes. "Register...register? What registration?"
Lin Panpan looked at her with a half-smile and said:
“You don’t even know what registration is, and you just said you were treated in our hospital.
"It was the doctor in our hospital who killed him. Isn't that a bit too much of a joke?"
The woman cried loudly:
"Did everyone hear that? This woman is just trying to shirk responsibility! Wuu ...
My son! He’s only in his 20s! How can I live with this?”
The hospital lobby was noisy and crowded with people watching.
One woman pouted and said, "Is this the new director? He wants to pass the buck when something goes wrong? The patient got worse after being treated here, how dare you deny it?"
The old man next to him nodded: "That's right! If someone gets hurt during treatment one day, who would dare to come?"
Suddenly someone in the crowd murmured, "But their consultation fee is really cheap, and they even give away eggs when you register..."
Lin Panpan, wearing a white coat, squeezed to the front, stared at the woman making trouble and asked, "Are you sure you got it wrong during treatment in our hospital?"
The woman stiffened her neck and spoke in a voice louder than a speaker: "This isn't your hospital. Why would I come here for so long?"
